Give to someone in need
Acts 435 is about giving to people directly, to help them bridge the gap when they are facing a financial crisis.
Can you help a specific person in need?
Read stories of the applicants below and give as you feel able. Any amount will make a big difference to someone who is struggling.
You can instead make a general donation and the Acts 435 team will allocate it to the most urgent requests.

D is a single gentleman who at present is in receipt of Universal Credit, but is actively looking for work, even though he suffers from Emphysema, and suffered a heart attack a few years ago. Unfortunately, his benefits do not cover his full cost of living and he is struggling to afford enough food for himself. Any help would be appreciated by this gentleman to tide him over until he finds himself a job and can get his finances back in order.
Still £100 left to donate
Total needed £100A is a single gentleman who until recently was homeless, but he is now in a 'wet' house for homeless men. He is in receipt of Universal Credit and has recently applied for other benefits, for which he is awaiting the outcome. In the meantime, A is struggling to buy food and eat proper meals. Help with this would be much appreciated by him whilst he waits for the decision on his benefits claim, and can get his life back on track. Thank you.
